For those of you who are familiar with the Willen Lake park rules and regulations, a lot has changed since COVID. They no longer allow alcohol and open flame BBQ's at the park, however, we have managed to attain a licence that permits us to serve alcohol and BBQ in a designated area. Please note that any BBQ equipment brought into the park MUST stand a minimum of 2 feet above the ground. This will be strictly adhered to on the day. Due to the new regulations patrons are not permitted to bring alcohol onto the event site. A cashless bar will be provided. Any alcohol found will be confiscated by the park security with no guarantee for return. We look forward to meeting you and your family.
